Your examples is as correct as me pointing to Venezuela as what would happen if we let socialism run rampant in the US. Just because we want small government doesn’t mean we want no government. That’s as false of an assumption as saying Democrats want Communism because they want government to take care of the citizens cradle to grave.[/quote]
No, devil is in the details. They are light on them.
let’s look at the platform:
[quote]2.3 Energy and Resources
While energy is needed to fuel a modern society, government should not be subsidizing any particular form of energy. We oppose all government control of energy pricing, allocation, and production.[/quote]
[quote]
2.5 Money and Financial Markets
We favor free-market banking, with unrestricted competition among banks and depository institutions of all types. [/quote]
[quote]
2.8 Education
Education is best provided by the free market, achieving greater quality, accountability and efficiency with more diversity of choice. Recognizing that the education of children is a parental responsibility, we would restore authority to parents to determine the education of their children, without interference from government. Parents should have control of and responsibility for all funds expended for their children’s education.[/quote]
And basically all it ties back to property rights.
And that means it’s you versus Trump in the courts.
Or in a nutshell
[quote]2.9 Health Care
We favor a free market health care system. We recognize the freedom of individuals to determine the level of health insurance they want (if any), the level of health care they want, the care providers they want, the medicines and treatments they will use and all other aspects of their medical care, including end-of-life decisions. People should be free to purchase health insurance across state lines.[/quote]
That says nothing. And we aren’t going to let people die in the street so it’s empty prattle. There’s a reason why they got less than 1%.
